    I use one with my XB1X. Bought it off Amazon a couple of years back but can't find it now. Here's a link to an article detailing the best ones available in 2020.

    Thanks for the link but was more curious about the loading into games like RB6 which seems like it takes forever to load.

    I think that link does show if the speeds are better/equal/worse than the internal.

    With that having been said, it's barely noticeable to me. Maybe a couple of seconds faster but nothing to spend $50+ on IF that's your main reason.

    Anyone try a plague tale yet? Premise looks interesting, but I haven't heard much about it

    Not familiar with it, what kind of game is it?

    It looks like a stealth game where you're trying to escape capture from soldiers in the plague era. I guess the rats are repelled by light, so there is a lot of strategy in redirecting light away from enemies to advance. It's supposed to have a good story/characters. I just downloaded it, but I don't get on often

    User Taco Sa1ad and I need to recruit some of you gentlemen to play World of Warships with us. Fun game, although a bit of a grind, but it's always just the 2 of us. The game is also free as well, so it's at least worth trying.

    Playing now, but Taco isn't -- we usually play somewhere around 4-7 EST, and more on Mondays and Tuesdays... It's not a quick twitch game, more about positioning. I think it's more like a game of chess than an FPS, which is one of the reasons I enjoy it so much.
    You should play with us. Already on my friends list. Never saw you playing though. The atago is one of the best ships in the game.

    Some not so popular games I'm loving right now:

    Slay The Spire -- never played card games in my entire life... this game is awesome. An all time fav.
    Frostpunk -- this took the place of Jurassic for me. It's similar managing city/resources, but more challenging.
    Darwin Project -- kind of a fortnite lite 10 person BR that's just fun and different.
    Hunt: Showdown -- Escape from Tarkov lite that takes bounty style PvPvE into a 1890s occult theme.

    Down to show someone the ropes on Hunt if they pull the trigger. The others are single player and free.

    GTA online has a really deep economy with some cool shit but if you haven't been constantly playing it since launch you pretty much have to spend $100+ to even touch any of it

    We started playing again last week after a year or 2 hiatus. We found a glitch where can we duplicate cars and keep selling them. Expensive car can net you 700k with about 8 minutes of gameplay. Makes things more attainable and less of a grind.

    Child please. You can dupe one of the arena cars and make $1.7mm perf.

    There’s an entire subreddit for GTAO glitched.

    Also, don’t sell more than 1 car an hour, and no more than 7 in a 30 hour period or you’ll get flagged and rockstar will prob ban your account.

    I finally got my friends to start playing again after about 3 years of it and their minds were blown by all of the new businesses/clubhouses/nightclubs/bunkers/etc that you can buy.

    What car should I get for the glitch? I won that oppressor and they won't let me do that at Los Santos, same with my scramjet. Right now we have been doing this Benny's retro custom Elegy and getting 665k

    You have to buy the arena workshop, but a fully maxed out Issa is what most people dupe. r/gtaglitches is the best to follow bc so many of the methods get patched. Constantly changing

    I think I bought mine on sale for $800k? I can’t remember. But then it’s another 3 million to fully max out the car. Shit is stupid

    Taco Sa1ad rocked some ranked games today. It's a lot of fun. Makes the game feel less like a grind. Think I'm about to play something else, but I think we are both now 13. Early games of ranked are rough, it's literally ELO hell.

    I also downloaded Fishing Sim World Pro Tour but haven't played it yet. I always kind of liked fishing games, so why the hell not give it a try since it's free anyway?

    Kind of bummed that there isn't a fishing rod controller for the Xbox One -- I actually had been given one for the 360 and kind of loved it.
